Now I almost don't have to look at it anymore, the single volume of "Unnatural Death" is so popular, and the sales will only continue to climb, as for the author who previously questioned whether "Unnatural Death" was just a work that was simply touted, now he has also changed his previous attitude and expressed his congratulations, for fear that others will dig up what they said before, and pull them out to whip the corpse in order to gain popularity.

"Unnatural Death" is hot, and the animated movie "Midnight Bell" is also popular with "Unnatural Death".

The box office statistics of its movies were soon released - the average daily box office was 350 million yen, which is a total box office of about 8.7 billion yen based on the 25 days of the release of "Midnight Bell"!

It's only been four days since it was released, and there's still a lot of potential.

I have to say that Honhashi Daohiro and Toda Shimitsu really fought a beautiful turnaround battle this time, which earned back not only money, but also their declining reputation in the industry.

It is said that when the box office came out on the first day, Tohiro Motohashi and Toda Shimitsu excitedly didn't say a word and secretly took a bunch of animation production team staff to a club in Ginza to celebrate the success for one night, as for the content of the celebration...

This Higashino Tsukasa is not clear.

Although the other party also asked him to go with him.

But to be honest, it was still a little surprising that "Midnight Bell" could achieve such results.

The original world "Midnight Bell" topped the entire Japanese horror movie history list with a box office of 12 billion yen, and even the equally famous "Curse" Gaco's mother and son met Sadako in "Midnight Bell" had to get out of the way.

Tsukasa Higashino naturally has no doubts about the quality of the plot of "Midnight Bell", but in this world, the animated film "Midnight Bell" was screened first... There will definitely be a box office gap at the box office - animated films are relatively niche compared to live-action movies after all.

But he didn't expect that even under such restrictions, "Midnight Bell" could still set off such a craze.

And Tsukasa Higashino has also seen various posts about "Midnight Bell" on the Internet.

What smashed the TV at home after watching "Midnight Bell", what went to the cinema today, someone was directly scared into the hospital, and even several ventilators were transferred to the hospital at that time, desperately trying to rescue...

At a glance, you can see that these are simple rumors, similar to Baidu sticking water posts in the Celestial Empire in the previous life, just to send them out for fun.

At least Tsukasa Higashino hasn't received the news yet, and someone really watched "Midnight Bell" and went to the hospital.

If someone is really scared to death by "Midnight Bell", the production team of "Midnight Bell" is estimated to hold a press conference overnight to apologize to the deceased.

In addition to these posts that are purely rumors, what slightly caught the attention of Tsukasa Higashino may be that someone is discussing the easter egg at the end of "Midnight Bell".

Many people below were full of grievances and scolded Higashino Division.

The man who has a girlfriend said that his thighs were about to be pinched purple by his girlfriend.

People who didn't have girlfriends and brought their male friends to watch the movie said that they watched the movie, and when they looked at it, there was a bucket of popcorn on their heads, but they were so frightened that they didn't dare to move in place, for fear that it was really Sadako who ran behind him and deducted a bucket of popcorn on his head.

This group of Japanese friends who have a good life are really scared enough.

You know, this is just an animated movie, not a live-action movie.

If it's a live-action movie, maybe there will be some casualties at that time.

Tsukasa Higashino sighed like this, feeling that Sadako Yamamura deserved to be one of the most terrifying female ghost images of the year, even if it was put in this world, it was also the kind of murderous and murderous without blinking.

In addition to the gang of "Midnight Bells", many people also found Tsukasa Higashino.

These people, some of them are film investors, some are people from film production companies.

They found Tsukasa Higashino through Urashima Publishing House, and most of them wanted to get a script from Tsukasa Higashino.

It can really be said that there are a lot of people from all over Japan.

To put it bluntly, it almost collapsed the threshold of the Higashino family.

Think about it rationally... This phenomenon is really understandable.

"Midnight Bell" has created such a profit, and some investors and subsequent capital are of course jealous.

If nothing else, just take advantage of this popularity to release a version of "Midnight Bell" or work harder, and a live-action movie version of "Midnight Bell" is enough to make a lot of money.

How did "Midnight Bell" become popular?

Of course, it is based on the excellent quality of the script.

So who is the original author of the script?

This is, of course, Tsukasa Higashino.

Therefore, many people came to the door and wanted to seek cooperation with Tsukasa Higashino.

After all, the other party's identity is a comic book author, and in a sense, it's quite free, maybe he still has stock there?

There are many people who think like that.

And in this regard, Higashino Tsukasa could only smile and refuse one by one.

He does have a lot of good scripts for horror movies, but those things must be kept for his own use, and selling scripts is simply a matter of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, and of course Tsukasa Higashino understands this.

But refusal is rejection, and Tsukasa Higashino can be regarded as knowing the true situation of the industry's contempt chain...

Before, Tsukasa Higashino drew "Unnatural Death", a work that attracted the attention of half of the industry, but it couldn't attract these investors at all, and as a result, the animated movie "Midnight Bell" was a big hit, and these people took the initiative to come to the door...

The gap is truly impressive.

Sure enough, it really responded to the old saying - those who make TV series look down on those who do animation, and those who make movies look down on those who do TV series.

It's real.

It's true.

After Tsukasa Higashino stood up to see off the last group of people who came to visit, he beckoned Chihaya Higashino, who was staying at Ryoka Konoe's side, to go home.

After all, so many people came at once, and Higashino Chihaya was extremely afraid of life, so Higashino Tsukasa asked her to go to Konoe Ryoka's house in advance.

"Ace, Ace." After Chihaya Higashino returned home, he looked at Tsukasa Higashino curiously, and asked him with a serious face, "Did Asi win any awards again?" ”

"Why do you ask?" Tsukasa Higashino was a little funny, and he didn't quite understand what Chihaya Higashino meant.

"Ace must have won the award, that's why so many people came to the door, right?"

In Higashino's view, winning the award seems to be related to the number of visitors.

In her thoughts, the award won by Tsukasa Higashino this time must be more powerful than the last time, which is why so many people came to visit.

It's my brother, it's amazing.

She puffed up her chest inexplicably, with a feeling of smugness.

On the other hand, Tsukasa Higashino only thought about it a little and roughly understood her thoughts.

He laughed twice, then reached out and touched Higashino Chihaya's head, and didn't deny her: "Almost." ”

Hearing Higashino Tsukasa answer like this, Higashino Chihaya's snow-white face showed a touch of pain in the next second, but she still ran to her room and touched the piggy bank out: "Ace, let's go celebrate." ”

"To celebrate?" Tsukasa Higashino didn't expect Chihaya Higashino to make a decision so suddenly.

"Well, celebrate Ace winning another award this time." Chihaya Higashino lifted the piggy bank she was holding.

This contains all her savings for the first half of the year.

Looking at Higashino Chihaya's appearance, Higashino Tsukasa also reached out and touched the piggy piggy bank, and then asked her: "But isn't the money in this money for me to get married in the future?" ”

Hearing this, Higashino Chihaya's face obviously showed a look of reluctance, but she quickly cheered up: "It's the wedding money for Ace... But last time, the apprentices of the Black Palace came to celebrate... As Asi's sister, of course I can't escape... Just use the money from here. ”

When she said this, she was very unconfident, but she still looked serious.

Seeing it like this, Higashino Tsukasa couldn't help but reach out and want to bring the piggy bank: "If you want to go out to celebrate, I'll pay for it myself, Sister Chihaya, you are responsible for saving money for me." ”

"Nope." Chihaya Higashino shook his head vigorously and hugged the piggy bank tightly: "Just use the money in this." ”

She half-tilted her head and whispered, "I want to celebrate Ace... You can also work part-time to make money. I'm sure we'll be able to fill the gap soon. ”

Chihaya Higashino was even more unconfident as he spoke.

I'll be able to make it up soon... I don't know how long it will take to make it up...

And if his younger brother finds a girlfriend, he will definitely have to think about getting married with a lot of money.

My brother has found a girlfriend, so of course I have to consider getting married in the future.

She hugged the piggy bank, hesitated for a long time, her face was red, and she looked very embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Asi... My sister is so useless... And the money for the wedding ceremony of Ass will be used..."

"There's no such thing." Higashino's expression looked quite complicated, and then he shook his head with a smile, and reached out to touch Higashino Chihaya's head: "Thank you, Chihaya-san." ”

Now that Higashino Chihaya has made up his mind, it is naturally not easy for Higashino to continue to refuse - Higashino Chihaya is a stubborn temper, especially in matters about him, this little girl is like a brute cow, the type who hits the south wall and doesn't look back.

Now that you've decided to go out, you'll have to think about where you're going to eat.

What Higashino Tsukasa wants is an ordinary family cooking restaurant, which is affordable and cheap, and it doesn't make too much money for Higashino Chihaya.

But Higashino Chihaya shook his head at this and said that he wanted to go to a store with air conditioning and automatic doors...

In her world, it seems that the kind of storefront with automatic doors is quite high-end stores.

When Tsukasa Higashino heard it, isn't this just an ordinary fast food restaurant? There is also that kind of store that is quite cheap, and since Higashino Chihaya wants to go, then Higashino Tsukasa can take her there.

The two of them began to prepare, and when they were halfway through the preparation, Higashino Chihaya suddenly stopped Higashino Tsukasa and asked him to call Ryoka Konoe over to go with him.

She thinks that this money is for Tsukasa Higashino and Ryoka Konoe, of course

Higashino Tsukasa could only nod in agreement and called Ryoka Konoe out.

"Go, go to celebrate? And Chihaya-sama? Konoe Ryoka's eyes widened as she listened, and after a while, she whispered with some hesitation, "But... Didn't Sister Chihaya never use that money? Say it's me and Asi... Knotting, getting married... Money for the marriage ceremony. ”

When it came to getting married, Ryoka Konoe paused five or six times in a row before stammering before finishing speaking.

After finishing speaking, she lowered her head directly, eager to bury her head in her chest, and blushed undecently.

Seeing her like this, Higashino Tsukasa also explained the matter roughly.

"Is that so...? Then, how long will Sister Qianhaya save money..."Konoe Lianghua's mind was still quite clear, she nodded, and said in a low emphasis: "I will eat less." ”

It can't be helped, if she's letting go to eat... I'm afraid that the 200,000 yen of Higashino Chihaya will shrink to more than 100,000 yen on the spot.

Although the set meals at fast food restaurants are not expensive, it is still necessary to be modest!

Her sentence 'I'll eat less' made Tsukasa Higashino couldn't help but look at her more, and the suspicion in her eyes made Konoe Ryoka can't help but stroke the short black hair in her ears in a panic: "I'm serious!" I would have eaten less. ”

Seeing her flustered appearance, Higashino Tsukasa also laughed happily, but he still said, "I'm sorry, Lianghua, I'll compensate you later." ”

Inviting a girl with a particularly good appetite like Ryoka Konoe out to eat and letting her go on a diet is indeed a kind of torture.

Of course, Tsukasa Higashino wants to make amends later.

The two of them discussed for a while, and Chihaya Higashino, who had already changed into private clothes at home, came out of the room.

She has a good foundation, coupled with a slight wrinkle of eyebrows and eyes, not only does she not have a sad face, but she looks like a melancholy beauty.

I really don't know after returning to normal... Is Higashino Chihaya really a melancholy beauty?

At this time, she was holding a piggy bank, her expression was cautious, as if she was afraid that a thug would rush out of nowhere and snatch all her savings for half a year.

Looking at Higashino Chihaya's appearance, Higashino Tsukasa couldn't help but smile and beckoned her over.

The three of them went downstairs together and headed towards the shopping street.

When it comes to eating, the last person to speak is, of course, Ryoka Konoe, who has lived alone for two or three years, and the whole of Tokyo is about to be eaten by her.

There were few delicious restaurants she didn't know about - even Riko Hasegawa's family knew this short, plump, good-looking high school girl.

But fast food chains actually taste the same, and Konoe Ryoka quickly found a good store from memory.

The three of them sat down by the window, and the waiter next to them quickly served the menu with hot towels.

"Shhhh It's so expensive! Looking at the set meal on the menu, which often cost one or two thousand yen, Higashino Chihaya subconsciously hugged his piggy bank.

Usually Ace takes himself with him, is this what he eats?

It's also too expensive...

It seems that a lot of deposits will be used at this time.

But it's so expensive-

Is this a black shop?

Higashino Chihaya hesitated for a while, and finally decided on the set meal he wanted to eat.

"I didn't use so much money when I bought Mariana Trench perch before..."

Seeing the waiter smiling and leaving with the menu, Higashino Chihaya couldn't help but mutter.

Is... It's so expensive.

Ryoka Konoe next to her looked at Chihaya Higashino's distressed expression, and also touched her head.

It's like thinking about something.
